About the piece
Painted in 1780 by Jacob Philipp Hackert, this oil on canvas captures the lively atmosphere of the coast at Pratica di Mare. The composition balances the stately architecture of the Casino Borghese with a detailed cast of characters on the beach, from elegantly dressed visitors with parasols to hardworking fishermen, all set beneath a vast, luminous sky characteristic of the artist's classical style.
